2. Bring water to a gentle boil, then carefully lower in eggs. Boil for exactly 6 minutes for a soft-set center. Transfer to an ice bath before peeling.
3. Slice eggs in half and arrange on a plate alongside the broccoli. For added freshness, serve with a handful of baby greens like arugula or spinach.
